Melbourne-based founder of Dot Comme, Octavius La Rosa's collection of vintage Comme des Garçons is truly an impressive feat to behold. He has been sourcing the brand's archival pieces from across the globe for over a decade now—fueled by his obsession with Comme des Garçons that started when he was 18. "I’ve got many pieces from the very beginning – around 1975. Also an extensive archive [from the] eighties. The most famous are some padded pieces from SS97, and a number of the 2D show pieces from AW12."
